Cleaned up the board.  I removed insults towards other posters, I removed insults directed towards a sitting or previous presidents.  You tell me you are all big people and can take an argument, then you report opinions you don’t agree with.  You call those opinions hateful or libelous when they are neither.  An opinion that differs from yours is not libelous.  You may hate it, but it does not mean it’s hateful.  You want me to remove posts calling Obama an idiot and then you complain when I also remove posts calling Trump an idiot (and vice versa) and tell me I’m being one-sided.  So I leave the “idiot” posts up (both about Obama and Trump) and you are reporting the posts calling one of them an idiot.  I remove derogatory posts about Obama and I’m called a republican and I delete derogatory posts about Trump and I’m called a liberal. 

I have said before and will say again.  If you say you want someone assassinated, done away with, etc your posts are gone.  You tell other posters their opinions don’t matter and they are gone.  You make racial remarks about black people and they are gone.  You make racial remarks about “old white men” and they are gone.  You insinuate Trump is a molester and they are gone. You insinuate Obama is a crackhead they are gone.

I am trying to clean up the board and keep some civility.  Stop calling posters out, stop with the racist comments, stop screaming at other people and stop with calling anyone who holds the office of president (past or present) the nasty names you have been. 

Keep posts about political opinions and politicians and how you feel about them without the insults towards other posters.  I’m not going to remove anyone’s opinion on issues, politicians, news people, Hollywood people, etc, and I’m not going to remove posts because another poster doesn’t want to believe it and reports it and tells me it’s a lie.  It is not my place to remove a post because someone feels it is a lie. 

I’m told I’m moderating too much, therefore moderating will be kept to a minimum, yet will keep MTStars a place where everyone can give their opinions.  Nobody is banned for their opinion, as long as it doesn’t express harm to someone or is so haneous or disgusting.  And if you are sitting there snickering how good you think you will get others, then think again before you post.  As adults you should be able to discuss topics without insulting others.
